Get to know the river in your backyard! Join us for The River Talks – a free learning series hosted at the Lake Superior Estuarium.Join us on January 14 to learn about wild rice from members of the St. Louis River Manoomin Restoration Partnership!
For centuries, Ojibwe people and others came to Chi-gami ziibi, the St. Louis River, to harvest manoomin (wild rice), but over the past 100 years rice beds were greatly diminished here. After over a decade of restoration, wild rice in the estuary is slowly rebounding. Learn what it takes to bring these amazing plants back and what’s needed to care for manoomin into the future.
The Lake Superior Estuarium is located at 3 Marina Drive on Barkers Island in Superior, WI (it's the red building).
